Chrysler is recalling 25,250 SUVs to fix a braking issue raised by a supplier, reports The Detroit News.

The recall will improve pedal feel during certain aggressive braking maneuvers, the newspaper reports.

The recall covers some 2012-2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs, about 18,700 in the U.S., 825 in Canada, 530 in Mexico and 5,200 outside North America.

Chrysler said a supplier raised concerns about a component in its Ready Alert Braking, a safety system “that primes brakes for optimal response when making a sudden stop. Brake function was neither lost nor out of compliance with regulation, but pedal feel was not consistent with customer expectations.”

According to the automaker, it is unaware of any related injuries or crashes.

The company said an investigation discovered brake-fluid flow was being restricted. A software update optimizes flow and restores appropriate pedal feel.

Chrysler didn’t disclose a recall schedule.
